Welcome to the 2025–2026 school year! I am thrilled to welcome both our returning students and those who are new to our Bulldog family. As your proud principal, I am honored to lead a school community that is committed to academic excellence, student growth, and a culture of care and respect.

This year, our theme is “Empowered to Excel, Inspired to Lead.” We believe every student has the potential to achieve greatness, and our dedicated staff is here to support, challenge, and inspire them every step of the way.

We are excited to continue offering a wide range of academic programs, including our STEM initiatives, AVID strategies, and enrichment opportunities that prepare students for high school and beyond. Our teachers have been working hard over the summer to design engaging lessons that foster critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration.

At Memorial, we also prioritize the social and emotional well-being of our students. Through our Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) program and student leadership opportunities, we aim to create a safe, inclusive, and nurturing environment where every student feels seen, heard, and valued.

Please mark your calendars for our Open House on August 7th, where you’ll have the opportunity to meet our teachers, tour the campus, and learn more about the exciting year ahead.

Communication is key to a successful school year. I encourage you to stay connected through our school website, newsletters, and social media platforms. If you ever have questions or concerns, my door is always open.

Let’s make this school year one of growth, achievement, and Bulldog pride. I look forward to partnering with you to ensure every student thrives.

Nishira Mitchell, Principal
